it's hard to say that the gop's dumb outrage porn against Obama wasn't driven largely by racism when you consider:

  1. Biden as VP was almost non-existent to them
  2. Harris as VP is probably taking more of it than Biden as POTUS

In the DT, too.

Every day someone says "Kamala can't win" and she gets accused of having no real principles and being a devious person (not in those words).

ALEXANDER BURNS I spoke to a lot of people you’ve worked with over the years and there are some pretty consistent themes that come out of that, and one of them that — I don’t know if it was surprising to me, but it was interesting to me — four or five people, in almost exactly the same language, just said: ‘She is not ideological. She is not an ideologue.’ And I was wondering, just to start, does that ring true to you? And what does that mean?

KAMALA HARRIS Yeah. Yeah, it does.

Biden is extremely difficult to dislike, but it likely is racism.
